Directions: The question below consists of questions and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and give answer.
How is ‘over’ written in a code language?
I. ‘Over and again’ is written as ‘ka ja ha’ in that code language.
II. ‘Come and go’ is written as ‘ja pa na’ in that code language.
  • AData in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
  • BData in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
  • CData either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
  • DData in both the statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question.

I. ‘Over and again’ is written as ‘ka ja ha’ in that code language.

From the statement I, ‘over’ can be ‘ka’ or ‘ja’ or ‘ha’. So, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

II. ‘Come and go’ is written as ‘ja pa na’ in that code language.

From the statement II, no data about ‘over’ is mentioned. So, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Combing both the statements:

Both Statements when evaluated individually give us no information. But when taken together, we know that ‘and’ can be coded as ‘ja’ and no other word can be deciphered.

Hence, even after combining the two Statements, we cannot find the code for ‘over’.

Hence, data in both the statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question.
